"The magic of the moment, light illuminating land or sea, the essence of the scene captured forever", these are the elements which bring a feeling of joy and beauty to the artistry of Denis Chasse's paintings, and Katheryn's photography.

Denis received his training at the Art Institute of Boston from 1976 to 1978 where he received the Certificate of Merit for his art. He continued his training at the Paul Goodridge Art Studio, Salem, Ma. from 1979 to 1983. It was under the mentorship of Mr. Goodridge that Denis learned the techniques of the Gloucester School of Outdoor Painting founded by Emile Gruppe in the early 1930's. These techniques emphasize the use of bold color applied with expressive brushstrokes, creating a vibrant impression of a scenes and seascapes.

Denis‘s paintings and Katheryn’s photography capture the many distinctive moods and seasons of New England; especially, the Cape Cod vistas of seashores, beaches, quaint villages and sunsets. When you think of New England, think chasseart.com.
